Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a hoist and a pulley?

A pulley is a simple machine with a wheel and rope that changes the direction of force to make lifting easier, but it relies on manual effort. A hoist, especially an electric wire rope hoist, is a complex machine with a motor and gearing that actively lifts the load, providing much greater mechanical advantage and capacity.
